1970 Roadrunner - again

I LIKE that idea. Back when I had my 70, I had a "2 meter" amateur radio in the trunk. This was a POS called a "GE transistorized progress line."

I built a little relay control box with 4 push buttons for channel (frequency) control and hid that in the ashtray. Some people thought I was a "narc" LOL

This is the "front mount" version. Mine had been modified into the "trunk mount" version, so there was a small control head up front

I had a neon lamp on a little bracket on the antenna loading coil which would glow purple when transmitting----this was the "hi power" 80 watt version. "It impressed" the CBers LOL

On my original '70 Roadrunner I cut the entire ashtray assembly out. I had bought an under dash PIONEER TP-800 FM/8-track and I installed it in the dash. The front of the stereo was angled up at 45' and it looked great incorporated in the dash. The police always asked me if it was some form of police scanner. lol
